More on the absentee president regarding the real disaster in SoCal. Can you imagine Clinton not being on TV and announcing FEMA assistance and what to do? This guy Bush is totally unplugged, just like his old man. Even Davis had the brains to do a "feel good" appearance signing papers that we all know had already been signed and sent to D.C. to our catatonic leader. That some bureaucrat will have to tell Bush to appear tomorrow or sometime before the end of the week says it all. BTW the fire has now spread to the San Fernando Valley, part of LA city. Maybe Condeleeza Rice will tell Bush he should say something.
